Anatomy of an Alibi I am very excited to present my review of Anatomy of an Alibi by Ashley Elston. Huge thank you to Viking Penguin, Pamela Dorman Books, and NetGalley for providing me an ARC for review. My wife was introduced to First Lie Wins by Elston due to book club and she liked...

The Ghostwriter This book was one of those special circumstances that aligned into the perfect reading experience. I first saw this as a banner ad on Goodreads and the cover caught my eye right away. Heading to the book page on Goodreads to check out the little blurb about this book, only further made me... Continue Reading →
I was surprised to find out this was not only the first book I have read of Ashley Elston’s, but it is her debut into adult fiction. First for both of us it seems. My wife is in a bookclub at the Elementary school she works at and several of the staff pick their favorite... Continue Reading →

Way back when this book was first published in 2013 I think Jeffery Deaver (My all time favorite author) wrote a little blurb praising this book. He had mentioned the suspense and how well this story is structured and I have to admit,... Continue Reading →
The Steel KissJeffery Deaver is my favorite author. It is because of him that I became the avid reader and hopeful one day author. Every time he has a new book out I can't wait to start it. Thanks to Netgalley and Mr Deaver's publisher I was able to read this as an advanced reader... Continue Reading →
Fool Me OnceI have become a big fan of Harlan Coben's since I read his last few books, The Stranger, Missing you, and Six Years. Needless to say I was really looking forward to this books release and then my turn on the reserve list at my library. The premise of this book was really interesting.... Continue Reading →
Pretty GirlsI love Karin Slaughter. Her books are full of intense suspense, great characters, and a plot that will grab you from the very beginning and never let go. Her books can also have so pretty disturbing and gruesome subject matter. I'm not as strong as I used to be. Before I had kids I... Continue Reading →
